My Project

I am super excited about the 2022-2023 school year. This year I will be teaching in the Science Lab. Our school is a Title I school of rich diversity that has students from many backgrounds and cultures. Our students are extremely talented young people with a lot of potential.

As we continue learning about how organisms are classified, I have found that my students are more focused when they have eaten a healthy meal.

They also are more alert when they have the opportunity to eat a snack during their lesson. As we know the opening of a lesson is critical to gain students attention and enthusiasm to learn about a topic. What better way to get them excited about learning than by providing them with snacks as we begin our new units of study.

By providing snacks for students, we can help increase their academic performance in the classroom. Thank you in advance for your support.
